Thu, 29 Jul 2010 14:26:53 +0000http://blog.timesunion.com/marshall/?p=1588#comment-2699Well, I’m contemplating a blog when I retire (or maybe before if I can find the time to get it together, which I doubt) but I want to monetize it (can you tell I’ve been reading up on how to do this) to supplement the pension so I definitely won’t be asking to do it on the TU. Heck, this blog/web site is monetized. Why should the TU get the money instead of me? I love reading and commenting on blogs and if I retire, why not? I figure I can devote three hours a day to it easy if I’m not working. I don’t have the freaking pep after work.

I have what I think is a great idea for a blog knocking around in my head and I thought it was pretty unique but I googled to see if anyone else was doing it and, of course, they are but I’m not really surprised. Is anything totally unique any more? If you can think of it, someone’s probably already done it. I can live with that because I think my idea can compete but I want to research first and do it right and give it a go. Why not turn what I do for fun into cash or give it my best shot anyway? I’m not looking to get rich. Just make a couple extra bucks.

Huber, that photo just shows why I don’t go to Gold’s Gym even though I live right next door to one. (That’s my excuse and I’m sticking to it.)

Wed, 28 Jul 2010 23:46:37 +0000http://blog.timesunion.com/marshall/?p=1588#comment-2688Spot on with cricket. Alot of English still don’t understand the game. Next time your watching baseball with friend’s though, test their cricket knowledge and say “he just hit a sixer”, when someone hits a home run. A “sixer” would be akin to the baseball home run.

Regarding the deadbeat dad blog. I think that already exists actually. It’s those “Topix” websites. People bash people all the time on those.

1. Start one up on your own. Shows initiative.
2. Keep up with it and show that you can actually do it.
3. Put your real name on it.
4. If you have an idea for a themed blog (eg. one about fine dining in the area) you can probably e-mail the Times Union pitching your idea, but don’t just ask for a blog.
